I'm a long time LDer, but this is the first time I've been part of a LD community. After reading all sorts of tips and tricks, I can say with fair certainy that it depends on the individual. Things that work for some people just don't agree with other people's subconscious minds. The trick is to try many things until you find what feels right to you. You can also try making up your own way of doing it. If it feels right, your logical mind will be more willing to suspend belief and let it happen. Once it happens, tell yourself, "I'm able to do this because I'm dreaming, and in dreams there are no rules." Your confidence will grow as you prove to yourself that you are capable. Try to become good at one thing before branching out. You need to build your confidence in one area first, THEN you can tell yourself, "Hey, if I can fly, there's no reason I can't pass through walls," or whatever it is you want to do next. Believing in yourself is important both in the real world, and in the dream world.
Just as an aside, here's how I usually fly (I was a self-taught dream flier at 6yo):
1. Get a running start, jump, and flap my arms. Hehehe. Not terribly dignified, but I've always found it easier than levitating out of the blue.
2. Look at a point in space/air where I want to go, reach my hand out towards that point in space, close my fist around that point and feel it in my hand, pull myself forward and reach out for the next point of space with my hand and pull myself forward, while imagining it's as effortless as floating through water.
